Visiting Lucerne during the Festival of Lights

•••
Switzerland is one of those slightly underrated destinations, which may have a good reputation for winter sports and snowy mountains but there really is so much more to it. I've been to Switzerland many times over the last years and every single time I realize just how nice it is. The delicious food, the laid-back people, the high standard in everything you [...]

A Love Letter to Newcastle upon Tyne, England

•••
For a few years after I left university - a good ten years ago now - I struggled to make sense of my life. In a failing relationship and lurching from one silly job to another, I moved from city to city in the UK, trying to find a place I could call home.

Our magical Winter-Getaway at Kaiserlodge in Tyrol

The Kaiserlodge had popped into my feed every now and again for years already.
